Totally Hand Built....

I have a MIM 60's j bass and I've ordered the stacked pots (CTS audio) , knobs metal Mexi style so far...I love the tone but it wouldn't hurt to add a little fuller bass tone but don't want to loose the mids or highs. Here's the catch I'm also adding another bridge pickup so it will have 3 but the two bridge pups will either be soloed with neck or combined via 3 way toggle.
Any suggestions for pups and how do you match the third pup to the other two?!!!! Confused. Kinda been looking at lindy Fralins
Duncan sjb3---antiquity 2's --and Bartolinis were suggested as well as CS 60's. From what I can tell the CS 60's are less rounded in the bass and clearer highs, not exactly what I'm looking for.
I like vintage tone but want more solid bass out of it.

Welcome to TB! Glad to have you on board.

I suggest you start a thread in Pickups and Electronics to get good answers to your questions. They know their stuff over their.

Then I suggest you delete this post because it's really not on topic of this thread.

Good luck.
